700x32 tires... fenders would be a little bit of a challenge. Pretty but not ostentatious.

Good find. That seems a bit tall for someone 4'9" however. My 5' tall wife with long legs fits nicely on a 650C 44cm Terry with a standover height of 696mm. The Felt's 700C wheels give it a standover of 707mm which would put it at just a little too tall for my wife. I would suspect that would be a bit tall for someone an inch shorter.
